The problem is that telling people that you didn’t attempt suicide and that you are not currently suicidal is also consistent with someone who is, in fact, currently suicidal and wants another opportunity. that is to say, what he told his lawyers is not at all inconsistent with what supposedly happened later. It’s also worth noting that it was the cellmate’s lawyer who asked that the camera footage of their cell be preserved. Lastly, Epstein trying and failing to kill himself seems more likely than that particular cellmate trying and failing to kill Epstein. I don’t think what really happened will ever be clearer than mud, unfortunately.
